2020-2021
SEASON
While continuing to practice distancing until it is safe to come together, the PVS was excited to offer a full season of curated musical moments and virtual events throughout the year.
These events celebrated significant milestones, illuminated important topics, and brought unique ideas and perspectives to our community.
